At the “John Wick: Chapter 4” opening, Keanu Reeves opened up about how much his co-star Lance Reddick’s passing “f-king sucks”.
Reeves mentioned on Monday, “He was a beautiful person, a unique artist, [and] a man of grace and dignity [with] such a passion for his craft.
The emotional 58-year-old continued, “To have had the opportunity to work with him over the 10 years and four films [in the franchise] is something very special to me.
“It f–king sucks he’s not here.”
The “Matrix” actor continued to say the same thing to Entertainment Tonight, referring to Reddick as a “shining light.”
The “Wire” star, 60, passed away on March 17.
His wife Stephanie Reddick, daughter Yvonne, and son Christopher, whom he had with Suzanne Yvonne Louis-Reddick, all survive him.
At the event on Monday, Reeves dressed for the red carpet and wore a blue ribbon on his suit to commemorate Lance.

Laurence Fishburne, Natalia Tena, and Rina Sawayama, who are also co-stars, also posed for photos wearing the symbolic item.
Reddick’s “shock” departure, according to Fishburne, has been “hard.”
He is this movie’s goodness, the 61-year-old Emmy recipient continued. He was sort of the movie’s center because his character adored John Wick, according to the author.
Reeves and director Chad Stahelski expressed their condolences for Reddick in a joint statement after learning that the musician had been discovered unconscious in his California residence on Friday.
The pair wrote: “We are incredibly saddened and heartbroken at the passing of our dear friend and colleague Lance Reddick. He was a pleasure to deal with and the epitome of professionalism.
They ended by saying, “Our love and prayers are with his wife Stephanie, his children, family, and friends.
